This mid-’80s Squier Jazz Bass, made in Japan, comes from one of the most interesting eras in Fender history. When Fender launched the Squier line to compete with cheap copies during the Lawsuit Era, these Japanese-built instruments quickly developed a reputation of rivaling or outright outperforming their American-made contemporaries.
By the late ’80s, MIJ Squiers had earned their place as serious player-grade instruments, and today they remain a go-to for musicians looking for vintage feel and tone without the vintage price tag.
This Jazz Bass delivers exactly what you’d hope for: great weight, smooth playability, and that classic punchy Fender tone. It’s clearly been played and loved over the years, with noticeable wear and dings on the front and sides, giving it plenty of genuine relic-ing. If you’re after a well-seasoned bass with vintage vibe and real-world affordability, this one checks all the boxes.
